"There is a tide in the affairs of men Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat; And we must take the current when it serves,Or lose our ventures." 🤝

Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso receiving their NDC Membership cards from the National Chairman, Senator Moses Cleopas.

Leaders from APC, PRP, and NNPP, along with others, have defected to the NDC and pledged their full support.

Clarification on My Political Position We have noted recent media reports and discussions suggesting a possible realignment within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) due to the current challenges facing the party. In light of the misleading narratives in the public domain, I wish to state categorically that no final decision has been taken regarding my political future or that of my political associates. The recent Supreme Court judgment, while affirming the legitimacy of the David Mark-led National Working Committee (NWC), also remitted the matter back to the High Court. This has left the party in a precarious position. In addition, the Federal High Court has recently ruled to delegitimise the party’s recent convention. The Attorney General of the Federation has also strangely applied to a Federal High Court to deregister the ADC. We left the NNPP due to externally influenced legal problems that made our stay perilous. The ADC has now been also forced into this difficulty. Consequently, like other major stakeholders, we have commenced wide-ranging consultations — including with leaders from the NDC, PRP and others to explore the best options for protecting our democratic interests. We shall announce our decision in the soonest possible time. On the issue of presidential candidacy, I wish to recall my consistent record as a committed democrat. In the 2014 APC presidential primary, I came second to President Muhammadu Buhari (whom I fully supported to victory), with Atiku Abubakar third, Rochas Okorocha fourth, and the late Sam Nda-Isaiah fifth. Similarly, in 2019, I contested the PDP presidential ticket and immediately supported the winner, His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, serving as the campaign’s coordinator in the North. I have always placed national interest and party unity above personal ambition. Furthermore, the ADC is yet to zone its presidential ticket or take any decision on a candidate. I have therefore neither declared any intention to run for president nor endorsed any aspirant. All speculations to the contrary are premature and unfounded. My absence from the two recent ADC stakeholders’ meetings was due to unavoidable personal commitments. I promptly communicated my apologies to the party leadership. We shall continue to engage constructively at all levels. Any definitive position on our political direction will be communicated formally through official channels at the appropriate time. Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, PhD, FNSE Former Governor, Kano State Former Minster of Defence

I thought Okowa moving delta to APC was the wrong move but looking bad, they made the right decision ngl. Let’s not follow Obi into political wilderness.

Day 2 of hosting Kwara PDP leaders, stakeholders, gubernatorial and National Assembly aspirants at my home. Today’s meeting is a continuation of the bonding and unity needed to ensure we move forward as one cohesive team.

1 million impressions in an hour. Now that’s a presidential pull.

BKO on Kwankwaso agreeing to be the running mate of Peter Obi for 2027: Kwankwaso agrees now to be running mate of Peter Obi because he's eyeing 2031. He wants the votes of the Southeast so that people will say he supports our man. If he comes out in 2031, he will then get the votes of the Southeast. This is his agenda, this is his goal. He knows what he is doing, he is not politically naive
